I only let them sleep on satin beds. Make sure you clean eyes daily. As the eye boogers rot the coat and the hair there will become part of the facial furnishings
I do usually brush her coat as I dry it, and I always clean her face daily....she will not eat breakfast until she has been groomed. I have only been using a comb on her dry hair. It is a very fine toothed metal comb. I have started bathing every 4 days, ever since I read that it was better for the coat. I have been using the slicker brush as I dry. Little booger loves it! And yes I try to keep her ground contact minimal as everything gets in her coat!! I would love to see what she looks like in a full length coat!!!! I can hardly wait!
